"I have known Erin Gessaman-Rabke and Carl Rabke for about twelve years as students, friends, and colleagues. They integrate deep somatic understanding with their devoted meditation practice in ways that are very helpful for both very experienced and novice students. Speaking as the founder of The Embodied Life School, with more than 45 years experience as a Feldenkrais teacher and a nearly 50-year practice of Zen meditation, I can wholeheartedly recommend their teachings. I can also attest to their integrity as both teachers and human beings." - Russell Delman, Founder, The Embodied Life™ School
"Erin and Carl are two of the kindest teachers and the gentlest, most patient guides I have ever met. In addition to offering wonderful movement lessons, poetry, and food for thought, they’ve fostered a nurturing community." - Ilona Fried
"The absolute best part of the lessons is Erin and Carl. Their infectious enthusiasm and curiosity about the movement of the body keep me coming back. They have an impressive depth of understanding of anatomy, kinesiology, spirituality, and social justice which they weave into the lessons in a strikingly beautiful way. Even though I have yet to meet them in person, I feel deeply connected and seen by them. They offer clear explanations and guidance while leaving plenty of space for my own experience and explorations." - Linda Raven, Indiana, Radical Life Coach
"Erin and Carl Rabke are two of the most awake, compassionate, and embodied practitioners I have worked with. Both of them bring inspiration, subtlety, and exquisite nuance to their instruction. They are deeply in touch with their audience and I would entrust anyone to their reliable hands." - Diane Musho Hamilton Roshi
"Erin, with her great teaching skills, her gentle approach, her soothing voice, and her enthusiasm is helping me find the path toward healing and preventing injuries and chronic pain. I feel like she presented me with the missing link to taking better care of my body. The increased body awareness has helped me feel better in my daily activities and complements my physical therapy exercises very well. It is just the beginning for me of a wonderful journey of improved understanding of my body, a more focused and open mind, and increased coordination between the two. Not only are the sessions with her very beneficial and enjoyable, but I can conveniently download exercises to do at home. She is a great teacher and her passion is contagious. I am so happy I met her!" - Magali Lequient, DVM
